Giro leader Tadej Pogacar finally takes it easy in Stage 4. Jonathan Milan takes a sprint victory
ANDORA, Italy (AP) — On the fourth day of his first Giro d’Italia, Tadej Pogacar finally took it easy.
The Slovenian’s overall lead remained unchanged as he let the sprinters assume the spotlight and Jonathan Milan won the fourth stage on Tuesday in a bunch finish.
Pogacar, who is attempting to win both the Giro and Tour de France this year, had been at the center of attention in the opening three stages.
In Stage 1, he immediately gained time on all of his direct rivals and finished third in a sprint. Then he claimed the pink jersey by winning the second stage and nearly caught the sprinters by surprise in Stage 3 with a late attack.
This time, Pogacar sat tight in the peloton as Milan edged Kaden Groves and Phil Bauhaus at the line for his second victory at the Giro after claiming the second stage last year.
Milan, who rides for the Lidl-Trek team, also reclaimed the points jersey that he won last year.
